Is there a newsletter or other capability announcement option?

I know that there are the release posts on the forum, blog, reddit, twitter, etc, but is there a mailing list, dashboard widget or any other functionality for updating people and calling out new capabilities?
I usually check out the release notes whenever I see them posted and I'd like to consider myself a relatively knowledgeable user of OPNsense, but somehow I managed to be completely blindsided by the fact that CrowdSec has been available functionality since 22.1. It wasn't until I saw ZenArmor post their tutorial about it that I realized.

I think it might be helpful to have additional announcements, mailings, or something calling out things like this and not just releases. I know not everyone reads the release notes and it can be easy to inadvertently skim past a line item. It doesn't need to be a tutorial or anything like that. Just a brief notice highlighting the availability or improvement in the capability of a function. I can't think of a text example offhand, but something akin to a techtok or youtube shorts tip, but obviously not in video format as that's a lot more work than I think would be needed.
Maybe even an occasionally post highlighting some existing functionality and documentation that people may not have realized or thought about.
